    Truffle pasta & lasagna

    Nice and quiet spot with a good selection of various traditional Dishes. My favorite was the salted cod appetizer which was delicious.

    Prosciutto + Arugula

    It's our first day exploring Rome and after a whole lot of walking it's time to eat! It was really, really tough trying to pick a place, but we just had to be random and stroll into the first spot we saw after deciding we needed food. Atmosphere/Appearance: I think there's parking on the street, but it's a Roman street, so... I don't really know. Lol. Cars were just everywhere they wanted to be. Once you walk in you're entered into the coffee shop section, but if you walk a little further you'll be in the dining room where you can talk to a host to be seated. We turned right and were sat outside in the beautiful late September Italian weather. If you were to continue walking before going outside you'd go into another dining room that wraps around and runs the entire length of the back of the restaurant. Service: Straightforward, nothing to complain nor write home about. Food: I kept it simple and went for a flatbread? Pizza? I'm not sure what to call it here. Lol. It had prosciutto and arugula on it. It was delicious with simple flavors. One thing I learned... you have to cut the pizza yourself! No matter, good thing we have a knife and a fork! Value: All prices are in €EUR. MY Prosciutto De Parma was €13.50. I think that's pretty decent for a lunch and it also included taxes. Word on the street is that you don't have to tip here so that certainly keeps things cheaper! In conclusion this place was pretty cool and has a lot to offer. Stop on by and give it a try.

    Cacio e Pepe

    Obica is a wonderful spot for an outdoor lunch in Rome! They have a large patio with lots of seating. At prime lunch time on a beautiful day it was not hard to snag a table. They have a variety of small and shareable meat / cheese / veggie options and you can basically make a DIY charcuterie. There are also lots of different pizzas / pastas / salads. When in Rome, do as the Romans do... eat cacio e pepe. And sure enough, the cacio e pepe was divine. Super creamy and cheesy and came with a generous portion of al dente spaghetti. We also got a mini meat and cheese board -- there was a decent showing of meat and veggies but after seeing only one tiny piece of cheese I decided to add an extra buffalo mozzarella ball. I love that you can order various cheese items a la carte, so this worked out perfectly. The mozz ball was also super fresh. All of this with a reasonably priced aperol spritz really made for a great experience. I'm only knocking off a star because service was very slow. This is a a great lunch option if you don't want anything too stuffy but also want to sit down and not grab and go.

    The food was delicious, very fresh and tasty. The service was excellent. We enjoyed a family dinner.

    We had a fantastic experience here! Service was warm and friendly. They speak English and are very welcoming. The wine was great and we ordered quite a few glasses. The menu is in Italian, but they make the effort to explain if you have any questions. We started with the burrata and an antipasti plate (although I can't remember what it is called on the menu). Both were excellent. My husband ordered the pasta and I ordered a pizza. Everything was very reasonably priced. I did not like the Aperol spritz. I think that is just my personal preference though, as it is very popular here. Unfortunately, they lose a star because my pizza was not good. Actually, it was pretty terrible. That was SO disappointing being that I was very excited to have pizza in Rome. Everything else on the menu was fantastic though. We would return, especially since it has been hit or miss on the customer service to us Americans here in Rome and they were so nice! But we would not order the pizza again.

    So tonight i decided to choose this placed because it was on our route to the spanish steps and towards our hotel... Tonight it was not busy. I ordered the handmade intense taste buffalo mozzarella. It came with olive oil and vinegar on the side in a bed of fresh spinach tomato and olives... The mozzarella is a little smaller than a tennis ball....Amazing!!! I also was undecided on which soup. But i couldnt turn down the crema di zucca. Which is pumpkin soup. It came with toasted croutons and 30 year aged shavings of parmeggiano reggiano on the side to add in yourself! There was a few gnats flying around which was very annoying! My cousin ordered the burger. Now i warned here outside the US don't order one, but she wanted to try it. Now they dont ask how you like it prepared. Italians like to bring the food to you how they like to have it prepared... Her burger was very medium. There was no bun it came with a small handfull of steak like fries some spinach tomato and olives on the side... Overall she did not eat her €18.50 burger. She asked if i wanted to try it i told her no overall she did not eat it. My experience with the food here was delicious. Word of advice dont order burgers in italy!

    Great dining experience. Fast/friendly service, relaxed atmosphere, affordable wine, and amazing pizza. A must try on your visit to Rome! Cheers! Update: Second day did dining here in a row. On my way to meet with some friends at the other Obicà location and somehow ended up here. Happy mistake. I had been walking for 30 mins and needed a break. Had the prosciutto and mozzarella as well as beef ragu lasagna. Great service! Did not disappoint.

    Nice atmosphere, good service and good value for money. Tiramisu excellent

    Great mozzarella! The portion size will leave you wanting more, but the staff is very friendly and the mozzarella is worth the price.

    Everyone needs a trip to Italy, if nothing more than to enjoy all of the food…read more When you've landed, you're hungry, and it's not lunch time, and it's not dinner time, you may end up, selling for whatever you can find is open We were absolutely starving, and wanting to indulge in our first Italian meal, what do you do when you're in Italy?! You may want to indulge in pasta or pizza! We walked in, and we were immediately seated. Air conditioning is nonexistent, and on a hot summer day, it would've been cooler to dine outside. had that been an option, and it was 95° out. As soon as we were seated, we were immediately told that Pizza and some of their baked Italian dishes were not going to be available. Boo. The wait staff seemed fairly nice, and offered to bring us glasses of water. The glasses were super tiny, and thankfully the waitress brought over a carafe of water. We asked for a few suggestions, since both of us had been craving pizza, and she suggested the Carbonara. She said it was one of the best dishes. While we were waiting for our food, several other tables were immediately filled up with other customers, families and friends alike. It was interesting that those tables were served pizza... I'll just leave it at that. The carbonara Was anything less than delicious. We both found the pasta to be barely cooked. Not al dente, but barely cooked. The seasoning was mediocre, and there was very little pork, which is supposed to be the highlight of this dish, in this dish. Diners tip: if you are not a local, keep in mind that your version of Customer Service may or may not fit what Customer Service is in Rome. Despite being hungry, I had a hard time, finishing the food, let alone actually eating it. The waitress only came over at the end to drop off the check, and when she noticed that I had barely eaten anything, first gave me a strange look, and then asked about it. It was definitely one of those situations where saying something was wrong would've been met with unwanted attention. This is in a place to add to your must try list... There are plenty of other places, even in and around this area that more than likely would be a better choice.

    Bufala pizza with red sauce and lasagna was excellent. Seating was fast and good serviceread more
